UNSPSC 50545803: Frozen non GMO aurora plums

The variety of non GMO plums known as non GMO aurora plums that have been frozen for preservation. This means that they are produced without the use of methods that genetically modify organisms by means that are not possible under natural conditions. Such methods include cell fusion, microencapsulation and macro-encapsulation, and recombinant DNA technology (including gene deletion, gene doubling, introducing a foreign gene, and changing the positions of genes when achieved by recombinant DNA technology).

Traditional methods of breeding, conjugation, fermentation, hybridization, in vitro fertilization, or tissue culture are considered to be non-GMO.

UNSPSC 50545803 Frozen non-GMO aurora plums is a Commodity code that does not see relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code is the City of Bridgeport's June 2026 grocery-items solicitation for the Board of Education, a broad multi-category procurement spanning over 1,100 line items including frozen products, dairy, meats, vegetables, and condiments—not frozen aurora plums specifically. The Bridgeport RFQ notes frozen products as one category among many but makes no reference to aurora plums or to non-GMO specifications. The remaining eight recent opportunities in the source—all issued by school districts or a state education office in Georgia, Missouri, and Connecticut between January and June 2026—are similarly broad grocery, food-service, and produce solicitations. None explicitly name frozen aurora plums, non-GMO produce specifications, or specialty fruit items at the commodity level.

The apparent mismatch between the code's specificity (frozen non-GMO aurora plums) and the actual scope of recent opportunities (general school-nutrition grocery and produce contracts spanning hundreds of line items across multiple food categories) suggests that this code is either rarely used for direct procurement by state and local buying bodies, or that the tagging of these opportunities to the code is incidental to their broader food-service scope. Bidders targeting frozen specialty-fruit or non-GMO produce niches should monitor broader school-nutrition and institutional-grocery RFPs in Georgia, Connecticut, and Missouri—the three states where recent activity clusters—but should expect to compete as component suppliers within multi-vendor, multi-category solicitations rather than as dedicated commodity suppliers.
